Paediatric dentistry

Visiting the dentist at an early age builds good oral hygiene habits and is important for overcoming fear, both in childhood and throughout life. The best time for a first visit to the dentist is around the child's first birthday.

Through play and talk suited to the child's age, we try to make dental treatment fun and as little traumatic as possible. We coat our youngest patients' teeth with fluoride gels that help prevent tooth decay. The method is completely painless for the child.

We teach parents why it matters to repair milk teeth, to avoid later problems with the permanent teeth and orthodontic anomalies caused by losing milk teeth too early. We seal young permanent teeth with fissure sealants to keep decay from forming on them for a long time. Fitting a fissure sealant does not require drilling the tooth.

When a tooth needs drilling to remove decay, we use painless methods of giving anaesthesia. We first coat the injection site with an anaesthetic gel so that the needle does not hurt.

Through the multidisciplinary approach of our specialists, Dario Repić, DDM, PhD, and Slavica Pejda Repić, DDM, PhD, specialist in orthodontics, we give you and your child the best advice and the best treatment. Because we pay special attention to preventive care as your child grows and develops, we help prevent certain orthodontic anomalies and unpleasant experiences at the dentist.

For a successful repair, our little patients are rewarded with a certificate of bravery or praise.
